Yep.
180mm (can be 178-179 also) M12x1.5

Q

Should buy a new meter

 

[stuff]

What’s the new head angle with the mullet setup?

I have no idea, but guessing 63.5/64

 

[stuff]

What do u think guys if I use Shimano XT 2 piston, will it be ok for this lightweight eMTB? I don't do jumps or drops, just adventure riding.

At least go for 4pot in front and 2pot rear as a bare minimum.
You can get a slx 4pot 7120 caliper quite cheap and has the same breaking power as the xt (and it takes 2’ to change it)

 

[thaeber]

Well I have a spare cock

I wish I would…

Sounds good on battery.
With my mechanical brakes I have no oil to overheat on long downhills. Rotors can still get hot. Have to stop and let them cool down same as oil.
I just think for a trail rider it is just not necessary to get fancy expensive brakes.

Last ride report:
52km / 1700m altitude gain / 100% ECO mode (1st led). That’s when a red light started blinking on the display, dont know if it’s 10% or 5% left.

Battery is bafang BT F014 410w

This thread is one of the best threads in the history of forums I’ve been on.

That’s pretty great, how much power and torque output is that in eco?

My DP E181 should arrive this week so with being able to have bluetooth i’ll try to give more details.

70k, quite thin but either way 4hrs riding for me was impressive!

Next test will be using mid-level the whole ride, stay tuned for tomorrows report

Love this, now there’s a reason to get out of bed tomorrow.

Perfect! I know what to expect!

If someone's going to order the Nukeproof ZS56 headset, maybe worth combining it with a rear axle, I bought this one: https://www.wiggle.com/es-en/p/bran...black&sizeStandard=12mm+-+148/180/20/M12*P1.5

It'll be arriving next week and hopefully with that I can consider the build finished

How much power does eco mode give you? I mean, how much faster are you on a given climb, compared to normal, non-e mtb?

My initial climb from home till the first “peak”, being 350m elevation and 4km i usually take 33/35’

In eco it took me 22’ and wasnt even tired.
Eco mode really has a lot of power, even on a previous ride I tried boost but felt even like a joke, 0 pedal effort and didnt even tried it again.

 

[krikri]

Ma montée initiale de chez moi jusqu'au premier "pic", soit 350m de dénivelé et 4km je prends habituellement 33/35'

En éco ça m'a pris 22' et je n'étais même pas fatigué.
Le mode Eco a vraiment beaucoup de puissance, même lors d'un précédent trajet, j'ai essayé le boost mais je me sentais même comme une blague, 0 effort de pédale et je n'ai même pas essayé à nouveau.

Et dans les descente, comment se comporte le vélo par rapport à un musculaire?

Do you have a besst? What is the percentage of effort on each mode? Do you have the same settings?

I dont
So guessing its at 25% also

I think your default factory setting is like @LAnton. I hope can finish my build today or tomorrow. With DPC 245 it will show how much max watt power on every level assist.

A very necessary detail.

My new setup 10%, 30, 50, 70, 100%. In the first aid, I still feel the help of the motor.

 

[brbr]

what's the eco setting feel like compared to a Bosch Eco mode ?

English?

translating for my French lazy fellow compatriot:

How does the bike behave downhill compared to an "analog" bike?

I actually know some french, but try to maintain the common language (english) so everyone’s aware.

To the reply:
Imo its less playfull than my YT jeffsy 150/160mm with 64.5HTA (so same travel and hta). I find it harder to do some transfers but that’s expected since im moving/jumping 18kg instead of 13. Also the bike tends to nose a tad more cause of the battery weight, but again same as most ebikes even an Orbea Rise.

My biggest impression is that going downhil on a straightish track or rock garden it feels even less harsh due to the suspension design, i find it not performing as well in curvy or gnarly tech stuff.

All my rides commonly include a mix or blue and red trails

 

[mike_kelly]

Anybody find chain stay protector included with their frame?
